Abstract: Formulations of active agent particles of less than 100 microns in a droplet of dispersant, which is coated with a matrix of cationic and anionic polymers, are efficient vehicles for delivering active agents to tissues such as skin and mucosal membranes. Such formulations are able to deliver compounds to skin with little associated irritation. Prior art topical formulations typically have the disadvantage of causing significant skin irritation.
